Acts 2:17-27

17 And it will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out My Spirit on all humanity; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
18 I will even pour out My Spirit on My male and female slaves in those days, and they will prophesy.
19 I will display wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below: blood and fire and a cloud of smoke.
20 The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and remarkable day of the Lord comes;
21 then whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. [a]
22 "Men of Israel, listen to these words: This Jesus the Nazarene was a man pointed out to you by God with miracles, wonders, and signs that God did among you through Him, just as you yourselves know.
23 Though He was delivered up according to God's determined plan and foreknowledge, you used[b] lawless people[c] to nail Him to a cross and kill Him.
24 God raised Him up, ending the pains of death, because it was not possible for Him to be held by it.
25 For David says of Him: I saw the Lord ever before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
26 Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced. Moreover my flesh will rest in hope,
27 because You will not leave my soul in Hades, or allow Your Holy One to see decay.
